Bildad Speaks
18:1 Then Bildad the Shuhite replied:
2 How long until you stop talking?
Show some sense, and then we can talk.
3 Why are we regarded as cattle,
as stupid in your sight?
4 You who tear yourself in anger—
should the earth be abandoned on your account,
or a rock be removed from its place?
Commentary
(the following is from Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary, 1706 -- www.christianity.com)
"Bildad had before given Job good advice and encouragement; here he used nothing but rebukes, and declared his ruin. And he concluded that Job shut out the providence of God from the management of human affairs, because he would not admit himself to be wicked."
